I think he is. I picked him up in a few leagues. We will see if he is in the lineup on Tuesday against a lefty.

I was kind of excited about Rengifo with the Brewers. He started a lot of games but hasn't gotten going. Let him go? Saw you answered a prev question about interest in Julien. Would he be an improvement?
Justin Mason
12:49
I would get Julien

Hey Justino! What underlying metrics to use evaluation player expected production moving foward for pitchers/hitters ? xERA-ERA? xwOBA-wOBA?
Justin Mason

So there are a ton I use. With hitters, I start with contact metrics like Z-Contact, O-Swing, Swing % and then I look at statcast for barrel rate, exit velos, sweet spot % and lastly I look at swing plan metrics.

For pitchers, I start with K-BB, then look at zone rate, swinging strike rate, velocity, o-swing, stuff +

Are you holding out hope on Tatsuya Imai's likelihood of performing as a quality starter in the short-term and/or long-term?
Justin Mason
12:52
I am worried about him right now with the "dead arm" he's going through. I think there is an injury there.

Jeff mentions Mlodzinski as a "solid breakout." I don't see it. What am I missing?
Justin Mason
12:53
The upside isn't amazing, but a very full arsenal that he mixes well and a great park to pitch in.

Could this be a Nola "on" year?
Justin Mason

I really hope fo

How many games would you project Ivan Herrera to start at catcher this season? He's at 6 currently.
Justin Mason
12:54
50?
Alejandro

Do you see Munoz losing his grip in Seattle? He's been shaky, and Brash, Ferrer, Speier ain't chumps.
Justin Mason
12:54
I dont yet
Rickey

Do you think Jac Caglianone is going to turn it around? Is he a hold in a shallow 12 teamer?
Justin Mason
12:54
I think he will
Pete

Do you think that Murakami adjusts?  The last week-plus hasn't been good.
Justin Mason
12:54
I worry about his ability to make consistent contact.

Klassen had a pretty rough debut, Whats the chances he gets back and hits his stride?
Justin Mason
12:54
low
DJ

Once Sam Antonacci gets the call is he a must add in 12T points leagues with deep benches?
Justin Mason
12:55
I don't know that he is a must add, but someone definitely to watch

I bought fully in to the Brenton Doyle rebound, last year was so understandable to write off that I completely removed it from my analysis. He has been struggling badly to open the year here and is seemingly losing some playing time. Would you cut bait in a 12-teamer or ride it out? He's right on that fringe for me as I took him 13th round in a 25-man roster league, so there's real depth in FA, but I've been holding.
Justin Mason
12:55
I am riding it out for right now. As things heat up in Coors, he will too
